As a die-hard Vikings fan, I’m scared s***less over the Saints.

Chicago Cardinals?

Interesting.

[PatriotCJC]

So am I... I am really hoping for a Saints NFC loss.

[Homer_J_Simpson]

Who are these Vikings and Saints of whom you speak? They are not among the ten teams in the league this year.

(Really, they are twenty-three and twenty-nine years in the future, respectively.)

Good to see my Cleveland Rams finish the season on a high note.

Are the Vikings and Saints part of the American Association Football league? I don’t really follow that league and I’ve never heard of those teams. I think the Newark Bears are pretty good in that league from what I hear though.

[Homer_J_Simpson]

Maybe you can explain the venue. Cleveland and Philadelphia playing in Colorado Springs? I picture a GM frantically burning up the phone lines looking for an open stadium. Its hard to get respect for this newish league.

[CougarGA7]

That kind of caught me off guard too. If I had known a little sooner I might have driven up there to see it live. Maybe football games were played out west the same way we occasionally do one in England today.
